it wont work because there is no way to control the VGT in the 6.0 turbo unless there is some kit for it that i havent heard of but, you would better off just buying an aftermarket turbo

^^^^^^^ what he said. i thought the same thing but looked for a kit and never found one, so upgraded next will be a hypermax h-2 turbo for me

I've heard plenty of 7.3 Power Strokes that had lots of turbo noise. I'm sure there's a way to get your 7.3 to "whistle."

no it doesnt, the 6.0 turbo is a vgt meaning the computer controls how it works, but running stuff off the 00-03 7.3s will add some power. bigblack97 my opinon is to ditch the edge programmer for a dp tuner chip they work alot better on the 7.3s then a programmer plus twist the knob and you can increase the power at the stop light to blow a little ricer away
